21. Midwest. Freelance internet marketer. In a relationship. Spiritual relationship with Christ ? Loves lip gloss, lattes, social media, sushi, shopping, health & fitness, etc. Summer baby.1. I have long, size 10 feet.
2. I have a color fetish.
3. I'm OCD about numbers, based on contextual structure. I follow people on Twitter in multiples of six. I upload Flickr photos in multiples of two. I size CSS element and photo pixels in multiples of two or five. Odd numbers (in pixels) drive me nuts!
4. I never, ever forget someone's face. If I have seen someone before, I instantly recognize them, regardless of whether I remember their name, or the last time I saw them, or if they have changed their hairstyle/appearance in any way.
5. When I'm not on prescription benzos, my facial expressions -- especially when I'm infuriated or bored -- tell all. My expression cannot hide how I feel inside!
6. I was the geek with taped glasses, highwaters, and unruly hair that no one liked in middle school. By senior year, I was hated for the exact opposite reason.
7. I've been doing this web thing since I was 11. Never knew that it would end up paying the bills.
8. I play dumb sometimes to see how naive people think I am. I can usually tell when someone is using me or associating with me solely for personal gain. I'll play along if I think I can teach that person a lesson in the end.
9. I'd do almost anything to be back in coastal Los Angeles in the near future. I had never felt happier than I was when I was there. Not for the people (some of them are awful)... But for the scenery, the lax attitude there, everything. I can't explain how or why I felt at incredible peace in LA.
10. Money and material things are not, nor will they ever be, my everything.
(3) As I've told you, I'm OCD too. When I was younger I had to do "taps" on my legs to feel balanced, in high school I ate foods in only odd numbers (I could grab a handful of M&Ms, but if there were less than 10 it had to be 3, 5, or 7 candies, not an even), and now I get really anxious if I don't clean a certain amount of my apartment daily. It could be worse. I medicate with caffeine and tanning.
(6) In middle school I was totally awkward. By my senior year I came into my own and was thin and pretty. I was too smart to hang out with the preppy girls but too "shallow" to hang out with the smart kids. With the exception of the boyfriend and one girl, my small set of close friends are all people who were my friends in my ugly ducking middle school days.
(7) I think about that almost *daily*.
(9) When I first when to Cali I was in *heaven* and felt the same way. Everyone else slept in 'til 9am but I was literally up at 5 in the morning running around in a bikini, doing laundry and bringing everyone coffee. I felt like I was finally home in the heat and the palm trees. Sometimes I still feel torn between Oregon and Cali. You should come hang out in Portland in the summer though - it's nice.
